Meet the first Warmasters!

Posted on April 18, 2011 by Zombrex

The first wave of Warmasters is here! Three users from RA have reached the current highest player status level in Regnum. That’s awesome! Do you want to know what they think about it? Take a look at this Q & A and find out!

Mantis (Alsius Female Dwarf Hunter)

.

Q: Have you changed your playing style since you became a Warmaster?

A: Yes, mostly by using the new WM skills. The offensive and defensive beacons –for example- have become essential to put up with the enemy armies that outnumber us (Alsius).  I’m also much popular now. In most of the battles –for example- I’m the first who get hit by the enemies (laughs).

.

Ibupirac Forte (Alsius Male Nordos Conjurer).

Q: How’s it like to be one of the first Regnum Online Warmasters?

A: I’m feeling much more attracted to the game than before. I think that all combats are going to be way more interesting than ever. I also try to help any user I can performing all new attacks included in the WM skill tree. There’s also a lot of curious players who are eager to know what the WM is capable of in the battlefield.

.

Ocio (Alsius Male Dwarf Hunter).

Q: Do you think that the introduction of the Warmasters will improve the RvR aspect of Regnum Online?

A: Yes, because the invasion rules require the WM to establish more precise strategy attacks for the three realms. I’m also pretty sure that the new WM skills will improve the combat in the game. Everything will be more dynamic.

This is just the beginning. We’re sure that there’re going to be more Warmasters  shortly. Get ready. Regnum Online is going to become more exciting than ever! Stay tuned!

Regnum World Tour Part 1: Volcanic Zone (Ignis)

Posted on April 14, 2011 by Zombrex

Welcome to Regnum World Tour, a new blog section in which we talk about different areas of the game map. For this first entry, let’s take a field trip to Igni’s Volcanic Zone, recently re-designed.

The revamp brought re-modeled trees made from scratch, showing a lot of more detail and color than the previous version. Some fire and smoke effects were added too.
NGD artists also worked on a new set of stones, with peak shapes, to give them a scarier look.

The lava river -the main part of the area-  was also improved. The goal was to give the zone a better sense of movement and that’s why the bridge was removed and replaced with lava lakes that showed persistent fire and lava splashing effects. The final touch of the process includes the redesign of the area’s spring and fall to make them look more like reference points in the zone.

Igni’s Volcanic Zone looks better than ever. Check out some screenshots by our map craftier, NGD’s senior artist Eugenio Insausti.

Regnum Online Bestiary 1: Goblins

Posted on April 7, 2011 by Zombrex

Hello community,

Welcome to the first edition of Regnum Online Bestiary, a new blog section in which we make a whole overview to the game’s creatures. For this first post, we analyze one of the first creatures that populate the world of Regnum: the Goblins.

Goblins are a standard creature of the medieval / fantastic genre, so Regnum needed their own version of them. The main idea of the concept for the goblin was to make him look the way it’s normally known, a very limited short size, disproportionate big head and pointy ears.

Quoting words from one of the “fathers” of the Regnum goblins, NGD senior artist, Nicolas Campelo, “This kind of creature is one of the better to work with, because it’s easy to imagine everything that surrounds them, how they organize their tribes and how is related with other creatures”.

Regardless of the Regnum technical limitations in the game’s early years, the NGD art team managed to develop a model for the goblin that contemplates the existence of different types for the same creature, varying elements like size, weapons or clothing. The latest redesign of the goblins, allowed the artists to go even further on that first objective. Nowadays, the variety of this creature in the world of Regnum it’s pretty big, showing more than 10 them.

For example, as the images posted below show it, in the game you can find  Goblins that defend themselves with a sword and a shield or others capable of using magic powers.

To talk about the develop process of the new mount; we salute once again Nicolas Campelo, one of NGD’s senior artists.

Q: What was the main idea behind the develop process of the horse?

A: The Warmaster’s horse was thought to be in the same line with the armor set of these characters. The main goal was to relate this mount with a more experienced warrior, a horse that can be distinct from the others in the Regnum world.

Q: Can you give the community some hint of what to expect in terms of new content?

A: Well, let’s just say that the inclusion of new elements in this mount, such as armor or fabric pieces, gives us a lot of new develop possibilities for the future.
